    Hotfox's big brother

    I just built on of these bad boys. 7x times the size of a hotfox and gets the fuel in the tank warm quicker. This setup is way more efficient than a hotfox. The tube is saturated with hot coolant while the WVO travels through the pickup then through 25ft of aluminum tubing where the heat is exchanged. There's a pic that shows my heater mounted on my rear mounted tank.

    Thumbs up

    I just joined and this is my first post. Now I realize that this post is almost 11 months old, but this is the first chance I have had to see the heating unit you built and I just wanted to tell you that I think you built a great unit. The 25’ of fuel line inside should heat up very well being surrounded by that much coolant and the amount of heat that will be released inside the tank will do a great job of heating up all the fuel. Again, great job!
